Banks, Glow Sticks, and Glasses

We had a pretty low key weekend. On Friday, we took the kiddos out to dinner. On Saturday, we played around the house in the morning. Phil had a noon tea time for the Ice Tee Classic on Reeds Lake. They set up a 9 hole golf course (drill holes in the ice) and have teams come out to play to raise money for charity. It was cold and snowy but he seemed to have fun. On Saturday evening, some of Kristen's former coworkers came over with their kids for pizza and a short visit. On Sunday, we went for sled rides and Phil and Will went to the playground for a bit to play in the snow. Then we went to the mall to let the kids run around for a while. After naps, Phil and Will went to Calvin College to walk the nature trail.

On Thursday, Will's school had a program sponsored by PNC Bank and Sesame Street to teach kids finances.  Kristen and Will (and Alex tagged along) got to play games in the big room and make 3 banks - one for saving, one for spending, and one for sharing.  Will emptied his entire piggy bank into the sharing jar and says he wants to spend all his money on his friends and family.  So sweet.  

Alex and Will had their first joint "glow bath" on Thursday night. Will has had them before but it was Alex's first time.  They stayed in the tub for over 30 minutes and probably would have stayed in longer if we let them!  They are good little buddies.
